UPDATE: Anheuser-Busch workers reach a deal, will not go on strike in N.J.
A possible strike is looming at the Anheuser-Busch brewing company, with nearly 200 workers preparing to walk off the job at the company’s 73-year-old factory in Newark as soon as Friday morning.
Neither side appeared to be backing off Wednesday, with the Teamsters union representing 5,000 employees nationwide continuing to plan for a strike. Meanwhile, the company’s management said it is looking at ways to continue making deliveries and maintaining operations.
